The lace was not part of the pattern but was an exquisite collaboration of the bride's and my imaginations.

She told me she wanted a key-hole back so I took off about 7 inches from the lower back and created this elegant back opening with some luxuriously soft venice lace.

She is absolutely the most stunning bride I have ever seen!

The most luminous bride!!!!!!

In the front I attached the lace to the halter strap of the dress.

In the back I was able to attach the lace to the dress under her arms creating a lace sleeve.

Breathtakingly radiant

A DIVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And now off to join with the groom!

I cannot do justice in words to the INCREDIBLE DEEPLY SATURATED BEAUTY I witnessed this day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She SANG her vows to her beloved with the most full bodied voice and romantic devoted words I have EVER heard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The bride and Groom were so generous to allow 4 camera men, another camera woman and myself to follow them through the field after the ceremony for pictures.
